You mean the thing they've been doing for years already? That's their discretion because if I remember, they own this site, not you. Why are you here if you don't like it? You even said, "Out of a lot of forums this is the most ridiculous one I've come across." so clearly you have other places you like more than here. Why not go there then?

Credit where it's due, that's a good line.
I've had posts deleted without warning or notice before. It's frustrating, I get it. But here's the thing... it's not all about you, or me.
Moderating a place like this is work, and there are only a handful of volunteers doing that work in their spare time. The trade-off for maintaining a reasonable level of quality and scope of discussion without creating an overwhelming workload is that there is a degree of expediency and individual whim in how the moderators conduct themselves. Considering the alternatives of either a complete breakdown in standards, or having many popular discussion topics banned outright, I think that's something most are prepared to accept. Nobody likes being shut down, but there are evidently reasons why you wanted to post here, and those qualities are the product of the system that is in place.
